lyrics

The sun is smiling
But I’m not shining
Cuz all I’m finding
Is shadows and light that’s blinding
And I’m not buying
The line about the silver lining
Cuz clouds surround me everyday
Looks like they’re here to stay
No, I can’t come out to play

Cuz I just don’t know what to do with this beautiful day
Yeah I wish that all these happy people would fade away
Cuz the sun doesn’t understand me, doesn’t care if I get burnt,
Or if I’m feeling hurt

I thought you loved me
I thought you cared
That’s what it seemed to mean,
The way you were always there
But all that promise melted in the sun
Now all I have are fantasies, things I wish we’d done
When I thought you were the one

Now I just don’t know what to do with this beautiful day
Should be sitting in a park, could be drinking in a café
But the sun doesn’t understand me, doesn’t care if I get burnt
Or if I’m feeling hurt

I guess I could go somewhere far, far away
Where the air is cold just like your heart
And I would go today so I could make you pay
If I thought you maybe cared that we’re apart
That would be a start

But I just don’t know what to do with this beautiful day
Yeah I wish that all these happy people would fade away
Cuz the sun doesn’t understand me, doesn’t care if I get burnt

No, I just don’t know what to do with this beautiful day
Should be sitting in a park, could be drinking in a café
But the sun doesn’t understand me, so I’m waiting for the rain
So I can cry again
